Stiche-Raten
One card more each deal up to ten and back, guess your tricks
Every player bids exactly how many tricks they will take. Only an exact hit scores. From 1 card each up to 10, then back down to 1. After the deal the next card is turned up: its suit is trump. When every card is dealt there is no trump. Every trick you take scores 1 point; an exact bid adds 10.
